THE California newspapers tell of la dy who found $20 and in less than a week realized $125o by speculating in real estate with it.

TIE Immigration Union of Phenix are considering the offers of the local news papers to furnish large illustrated edi- tions for gratuitous distribution through out the eastern and middle states It is likely one or two thousand dollars will be used in this manner, and it can be safely estimated that the investment will be one of the most profitable that could be made. All that is required to bring a great influx of people to the Gila and the Salt river valleys is the dissemination of reliable information regarding the resources and opportunities. They do not need the boastful but un- certain intelligence that this is "won- derful" country, 'Tull of astonishing pos ibilities", but they require detailed &C., count of the progress and developments already made, based upon actual fact and the proofs of the reliability of the information must be available. The syn dicate owning the Coronado beach at San Diego expended half a mi lion dol lars in beautifying and improving their lands before offering single lot for sale and the wisdom of their venture is shown by their rich reward. We must not expect to sell barren lands at fancy figures, but we must show what we can produce and convince visitors that we make no empty boasts. We must have the goods that are advertised ready for their inspection when they reach here. The people of Florence should lose nc time in organizing for the creation of q legitimate boom, for such things are made; they never grow spontaneo usly.

For over century the secret of the

Of IL through the garrulity Of an old
man from the neigh horhood OF Peize,
who affirms that for seventy years he
has never known of single case Of
death from hydrophobia. Beside q
large number OF human beings, an
army of dogs, cats, sheep and cattle
have been cured by the mysterious
remedy, about which nothing more 10

A Slick Thief.

Minneapolis Telegram: Swanson,
ON whose account the Western Union
IL sued by the st. Paul roller mill com
pany and Mccormack 4 Co. Of this
city for $500, was something Of an
artist" in crime. He was the Mani.
toba railway station agent at Grove
City, as well as agent Of the express
company, and telegraph operator.
Dudley had frequently telegraphed
from Grove City 10 the firm named
for money TO buy wheat, and II had
invariably been sent by express. The
messages had been sent by swanson
as operator and the mon y received by
him as express agent. He according
ly conceived the idea of raising stake
himself by signing Dudley's name TO
two kilograms TO the firms named,
telling them that wheat was selling
freely, and asking from 81 900 TO s., 900
and the other 81 500 in currency. The
money WAS sent as requested. and
upon its arrival Swanson, as express
agent received IL. He put IL in his
pocket, told his brother he was going
TO Minneapolis and skipped. He has
not been seen In these quarters since
and probably will not be for some
time, as he had four or five days start
before the correspondence between
the firm and Dudley revealed the for.
gerry. Whether swanson took any
other express packages Is not known.

here again that The President will call
session of both houses of Congress on
October let. This date was decided
upon after frequent consultations with
Speaker Carlisle and others, and the
delay in the departure of the ex-speak.
er from Washington was occassioned
principally by this matter. The Presi-
dent was strongly inclined to fix the
date for the extra session on the 18th
Of September, but there was objection
10 this ON account OF the extreme heat
at the National capital during that
month. The desire Of the President
was to have Congress assemble ~ soon
alter the close of the fiscal year ss pos
sible, so that the deficiency bill and
other important legislation could be
promptly attended TO, but the speaker
and members had their way in choos-
ing later day. The advantage OF
Congress assembling in October Is that
IT will give the house time TO organize
and attend TO the pressing wants u

but the total loss will lie heavy.
